So I never had an original gameboy (Poor), which was the platform Metroid 2: Return of Samus was released for. So I never got to play it, UNTIL NOW.

Someone spent years rebuilding this thing from the ground up with modern move mechanics (mantling, etc).

Downloaded it last night and had several hours of nostalgic glee with it, highly recommend snagging it before the inevitable nintendo DMCA takedown.

Where exactly do you download it from? The downloads section on that site just tells me page not found.

Looks like there may have been some illegitimate DMCA claims that have borked the downloads. People are posting alternate downloads in this thread, and it should be available via torrent (official torrent hash is also in this thread).

Yeah, that worked. Controls are a little bit rough via keyboard, but at least they let you change it. Not bad though, not bad.

Location: The battlefield. As always.
DMCA claim was legitimate and sent in not too long after the thing went up.

Nintendo's done similar before.
